Soft Skills: The Software Developer's Life Manual
Finished: January 2026
My Thoughts
Reading this made me reflect on my long journey as software engineer. I'm an introvert person, early in my career I always said to myself "I just want to code" and being expert in programming. I don't really care with my soft skill, and wasting my time by not trying to start learning new things, such as improving my English skills.
I am now starting to implement parts of this book—beginning with creating this blog, signing up for an English course to improve my language skills, and obtaining certifications to list on my resume. I’ve also started making small investments, attending community events to grow my network, and joining a gym to get in shape.
